The New Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets Illustrations are Truly Magical

They’ll totally make you want to read the book again.

Potterheads barely had two months to wrap their heads around the deluxe version of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone and its gorgeous illustrations before the next installment of the iconic series arrived. The series is scheduled to be released in October of this year, but a few key illustrations were just released in case you can't wait that long.

The brand-new edition of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets will feature 115 of artist Jim Kay’s stunning illustrations, making the book truly come to life. The illustrations are pretty magical. While you may have seen the live-action movies a few hundred times, you'll now be able to see Ron driving his family’s flying car and an intricate drawing of Dumbledore’s phoenix, Fawkes as you're reading the book. (Since the mythical bird was always disappearing in the movie, here’s your chance to get a closer look!)
